A megafight between UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva and welterweight champ Georges St. Pierre is closer than ever before.

UFC president Dana White said on the Dave & Mahoney radio show in Las Vegas on Tuesday that if St. Pierre beats Carlos Condit in November, he’ll “probably” face Silva next.

White added that the blockbuster fight would be at a catchweight, “probably like 178 (pounds).” Silva fights at 185 and St. Pierre at 170.

Silva has already said that he would be taking the rest of the year off after defeating Chael Sonnen in July at UFC 148. So St. Pierre could actually be the next fight for the pound-for-pound king. Beating Condit, though, is a big if for GSP, who is coming off injuries that have kept him out more than a year and a half.

Before the long absence, St. Pierre jockeyed with Silva atop the pound-for-pound rankings. Over the last two years, Silva has been regarded as the undisputed top guy.

A fight between the two might not have the juice it would have had in 2009, but make no mistake: It would be one of the biggest matchups in UFC history. White has been wanting to hold a show at Cowboys Stadium, which can hold more than 100,000 people. This could be the main event to do it.
